Kingdom Come was not designed to be a sword and sorcery game. The game itself, however, is so crushingly boring, so drawn out and tedious, that I cringe every time a character opens its mouth.Īnd I get it. 13 on PlayStation 4, Windows PC and Xbox One plays out across one of the most beautiful landscapes I’ve ever seen coming out of a computer screen. Unfortunately, after a long weekend with the game, I’m not sure I’ve absorbed much more than would be gained by a trip to the local Renaissance faire or a rerun of an Errol Flynn movie. Here was a game, insisted the developers at Warhorse Studios, that would help me to get closer to my heritage, a “ realistic RPG that will take you to Medieval Europe in a time of great upheaval and strife.” Hence my interest in Kingdom Come: Deliverance back when it showed up on Kickstarter in 2014. My parents taught me next to nothing about my heritage, other than a few mispronounced curses that stuck with them from their youth. But, like many third and fourth-generation Americans, that’s little more than a footnote in my history. I have a personal affinity for the Bohemian region of Europe, being a quarter Bohemian on my mother’s side.
